Toby Venables @tobyvenables.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I’m starting to wonder if they actually know the meaning of the word ‘hoax’. It would explain a lot. Nixon didn’t deny he did what he did. He only denied that it was wrong. 011

Reposted by Toby VenablesBob Geiger @bobgeiger.bsky.social · 15/10/2025Wait, now Watergate was a "HOAX"? It's one of the most documented, scrutinized and reviewed crimes in U.S. history. Nixon resigned because of it, after Republican senators told him he had to go or be removed. People did prison time. Who is dumber than Donald J. Trump? His supporters. 23113

Toby Venables @tobyvenables.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I suggested a while ago that we would at some point enter the ‘terror weapon’ phase of this war - Russia’s last, desperate, brutal attempt to end it before their capability collapses. I believe we are now in that phase. 010
